About this listen

 In a charming twist of fate, Mr. Neilson dreams of naming his firstborn after his childhood friend, William Henshaw. But when he is greeted with the unexpected news of a baby girl, he finds solace in naming her Billy. Now 18 and orphaned, Miss Billy decides to seek help from her namesake, unaware that Mr. Henshaw has no idea she exists—and believes she is a boy! Join Eleanor H. Porter, the talented early 20th-century author known for her beloved works like “Pollyanna” and its sequel, as she weaves a delightful tale of identity and connection. (Summary by Maria Therese)
